Looking at the Cowboys free agency status…they are fucked. They can’t even cut Zeke, Lawrence or T Smith to get relief.

Right now they are est 13 million over the cap.

They could designate Cooper as a post June 1 and get 18 million in relief with a 2 mill dead cap.

Key players up for free agency:
Randy Gregory
TE Dalton Schultz (he’s gonna get a massive contract, he’s good)
WR Cedric Wilson
WR mike Gallup
LVE
LG Conner Williams

They will restructure Dak and other big contracts, kick the can down the road as usual. Still they are going to be up against the cap each year. There are a couple of other key defensive guys (K.Neal and the FS I think) who will likely follow Quin out of the door

Yeah they will, but doesn’t solve the issue: underperforming players at high salaries

They didn’t give themselves “outs”…except for Cooper who is pretty good still.

Dak contract aside…Zeke, T Smith and Lawrence play has substantially slipped. Smith is done period…Zeke isn’t close to playing at a high level, he is simply a jag and 1 season away from being completely done. Lawrence is meh…fletcher Cox, john Allen is much better interior players in the east

Irony is they need Cooper to make Dak look good. If they lose Gallup and the TE and still have to cut Cooper lose they are starting from scratch

Is that 13 based on next years estimated cap? They are good but have too many holes to be considered a SB contender. Case in point GB is in just as bad as cap took the number 1 seed and all that despite not having a single starter play on oline for the entire season. Cowboys probably will win division again just because none of the other three teams have an even marginally adequate QB. If we end up improving the QB position we will be competitive with Dallas and should win division or at least compete for it.

Based on 208 million…I use overthecap.com

The NFL's salary cap for 2022 will rise to $208.2 million, NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reported, expanding by $25.7 million compared to this season. That is the maximum amount agreed upon by the NFL and NFL Players Association in May

That will definitely hurt them. Like I said they are good team in a weak division but they are no SB contender to many holes and not enough quality.
